Temperly's Long Term Care Family Home is a small adult family home with 8 licensed beds. The home gives seniors a supportive and secure community, especially those who need memory care for Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia. The property's designed with a warm and nurturing setting, there's both indoor and outdoor common areas for socializing, rooms have private bathrooms with full bath tubs, and there are safety and handicap features throughout. The secured memory care section uses a system like Wander Guard along with bracelets and alarms to keep residents safe if they tend to wander. Trained staff, including awake staff and nurses, are available 24 hours a day to give medication management, diabetic care including insulin, incontinence care, help with hygiene needs, and assistance with moving around-even for those needing more support or lift transfers. Temperly's also manages high-acuity care, hospice, and respite or short-term stays.
Meals get prepared fresh and focus on nutrition, with vegetarian options always offered, and they try to source organic and local when possible. Residents can use the on-site diner or hair salon. The home has planned activities like bingo, movie nights, spiritual or religious devotional activities both on site and off site, outings into the local area, and social events based on each resident's likes and abilities. There's cable TV in private rooms, vaulted ceilings for comfort, laundry and dry cleaning services, and personal care help for daily tasks. Temperly's accepts residents who can move about on their own, but need some extra help with hygiene, preparing meals, and housekeeping. There are services for those with all levels of dementia and for people who may be hard to manage because they get confused or try to leave.
Transportation is available for outings or appointments and the home is close to public transit. Family members get support, ongoing outreach, and education. The community doesn't take Medicare unless it's certified for it, but it carries a state or government license, and services meet standards set by agencies like the Department of Aging or Veterans' Services. English-speaking staff work to know each resident well, planning routines, activities, and care to fit their needs and interests, while encouraging independence as much as possible. The facility welcomes outdoor smoking, allows for resident parking, and links people to local community supports nearby. At Temperly's, the main focus stays on helping residents live with dignity, comfort, security, and as much independence as possible, all while giving peace of mind to families.
